The Ford GT Rejection Letter Is The Saddest Thing In The World
The Ford GT Rejection Letter Is The Saddest Thing In The World-March 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:09:58

Witness beauty, denied. The rejection letters are rolling in.

The new Ford GT is one of the most interesting and desirable cars of recent years. It’s a ready-made icon, but it’s still genuinely weird, from its cutaway aerodynamics to its questionably-super twin-turbo V6.

Demand for this car is at a five-joint-in-a-row high, and anyone able to secure ownership of one of these now Le Mans class-winning cars is a very lucky human.

So rejection would be a bit of a bummer.

Reader Brian sent this in, Ford trying to let a prospective buyer down easy.

The full text reads:

Thank you for your interest in purchasing a Ford GT!

We are thrilled that you share our passion for performance and the all-new Ford GT.

The demand for Ford GT from enthusiasts like you has surpassed our very limited production. Unfortunately, we do not have enough Ford GTs to fulfill your request at this time.

We have confirmed our Ford GT production plans for only two years. However, if additional production is confirmed, you application information will remain in your profile for easy updating.

Meanwhile, we encourage you to stay connected to the latest announcements, news and information through our website: www.fordgt.com.

Thank you, again, for your passion for our all-new supercar.

Regards,

The Ford GT Team

Nothing’s going to help, Ford. But at least you’re trying. To whoever got this notice in the mail, we feel for you.

Stop Getting So Hung Up On One-Owner Cars
Stop Getting So Hung Up On One-Owner Cars
Today I spit my Lucky Charms all over my laptop screen after seeing for sale on Ebay for nearly $16,000. The seller’s reasoning for selling the Jeep at such a lofty price was a typical one: it’s a one-owner car. My thought upon reading this: why should I give a...

For $34,999, Could This 1971 Pontiac Firebird Formula 455 Make You The Biggest On The Block?
For $34,999, Could This 1971 Pontiac Firebird Formula 455 Make You The Biggest On The Block?
You may have noticed my recent fascination with defunt marques, an enchantment that extends to today’s Firebird. Pontiac may be dead, but you’ll need to decide if this restored big block is priced to bury the competition. The we featured yesterday was one of… oh, somewhere around forty that the...

The 2017 Volvo V90 R-Design Lives Up To Its Looks
The 2017 Volvo V90 R-Design Lives Up To Its Looks
The R-Design is the midsize station wagon that was sent from the automotive gods to roundhouse kick generic crossovers in the chest. It brings the already-stunning to a new level by adding sexy Swedish design cues and a healthy dose of hunkered-down sports car athleticism. Volvo says its new R-Design...

What Do You Want To Know About The 2017 Acura NSX?
Happy almost-Independence Day. We’re celebrating with a real American supercar, the Ohio-built (and largely American-engineered) . Ask me stuff about it. We tested this car a year ago, but this is the first time your Jalopnik staff gets to spend several days living with Honda’s new supercar. It’s spending the...

For $7,477, Could This 2004 VW Touareg V10 TDI Make You The Torque Of The Town?
The crossover craze isn’t going away and if you’re going to jump on board you’ll want to do so with something interesting. Today’s Touareg is just that, but will its price prove it to be all that and a bag of chips? Pontiac used to run an ad campaign centered...
